Kanaan meets Geagea, calls for dialogue in national interest
Lebanese Forces Party leader Samir Geagea met yesterday with MP Ibrahim Kanaan, at the party’s headquarters in Maarab, with Strong Republic bloc MP Melhem Riachi also attending the hour-long meeting.

Following talks, Kanaan spoke briefly with reporters, emphasizing the importance of maintaining dialogue among all political forces “for the good and interest of the Lebanese people.”

He noted that the meeting addressed “all elements necessary to revive the country and restore hope to the Lebanese people.”

When asked about concerns that the streets could become a battleground for internal score-settling, Kanaan expressed hope that such a scenario would be avoided and that “matters proceed in the right direction.”

Commenting on the issue of Hezbollah’s weapons, Kanaan stated: “Let’s wait and see what the government decides on this matter. There are institutions and constitutional mechanisms that must be respected and upheld. In the end, we are all sons of the state, and we all want the state.”
